5 Tips to help keep eyelash extensions intact & looking amazing longer

1. Sleep on your back.

This might sound like a crazy request (unless you already sleep on your back), but it's really important directly following your application, since the glue takes a while to dry fully and you'll otherwise get weird kinks. After a night or two, resume your normal sleeping position.

2. Give your lashes a little OK, A Lot of Tender, Love & Care (TLC)

When removing your eye makeup (liner, shadow, etc.), gently go over the area with a cleansing wipe instead of placing cotton pads or puffs over your lids — not only could you eventually weaken the extensions and mess them up, the cotton fibre’s get stuck on lashes (not cute) Lady Lashes Studio recommend Lady Lashes Studio Lash Cleanser. We have formulated this very gentle and beautiful lash cleanser JUST for our beautiful ladies. You can purchase it at your next appointment with us.

3. Lube your Lashes.

You might think keeping your lash extensions dry is smart, but they actually stay nicer, longer, when they're oiled up (this helps keep them flexible). Just rub a drop of baby oil on them with your fingers. (We recommend you use Johnsons Baby Oil which you can purchase from your local pharmacy for around $5 for a 200ml bottle)

4. Comb your Lashes

To prevent any criss-crossing or wonky-looking lashes, use a wand (Lady Lashes Studio provide a FREE wand at each appointment). Close one eye, place the wand brush on top of your lashes, then roll the wand brush over lashes to keep them defined.

5. Resist playing with your Lashes.

Your eyelashes shed naturally, so when you have extensions, this will help push them off. If an extension looks out of place, avoid playing with it or twisting or pulling it off — you'll risk losing your natural lashes. Let them come out on their own, and use a brush wand to brush Lashes back into place.
